I'm sure the fans would be moaning either way.

Nul Points.

I'll write up the GPL resul– Done.

Evidently Queen's Park were stronger...

A double hat-trick is no good to me; that's 6 goals. I need 5 goals, none conceded.

I predicted 5-0...

Quelle horreur...

I have now, thanks. (I quoted myself.)

Rangers 5 - 0 Queen's Park FGS Igamane

I was hoping to see Curtis, but Rice and Fernandes is a good start. It's a strong team.

Here's the goals and assist data, from all competitions. We've got the main creators, Tavernier and Hagi (and Diomande), and the main scorers, Igamane, Cerny and Dessers. It's disappointing that we don't have anyone that can do both, other than Cerny, just. I think Danilo would be in that top-right quadrant if he could play more (he has played around 10 games fewer than everyone else). No Jefte - well, he'll be one of the unnamed points that don't do either.

Which is true, isn't it? He doesn't do much, other than score. It's not a criticism, per se. However, like I said elsewhere, it's not measuring creativity. It's only measuring how players move the ball forward. So it's not misleading at all. I initially made the graph because I wanted to compare Barron with Raskin, and Souttar with Propper. In my head Raskin was more of the passer, with Barron more of the carrier; and I thought Souttar liked to run with the ball, with Propper making those long diagonals. The data - at least in the European games - shows that Barron and Raskin do similar things (It doesn't mean Barron is as good as Raskin, that's certainly not true), and Propper and Souttar do similar things. I wish I had the league data as I think it would be interesting to see what Hagi and Nsiala do on the ball.

How are they misleading? It's not measuring his goals. It's only measuring progressive carries and passes. He's 5th in terms of carrying the ball, which is not bad at all. I was merely trying to illustrate who gets the ball forward for us.

To be fair, it doesn't show what happens next. Bajrami's goal involvement is quite low. It could be those carries and passes are the step before the goal involvement, in which case he's useful, or he's not making the correct decisions when he gets forward. I think I lean towards the latter at the moment.

I scrapped more data. This is only from our European games. It compares progressive carries (where a player dribbles forward for more than 10 yards) with progressive passes (passes that move the ball forwards more than 10 yards). Bajrami stands out: highest in ProgP and second highest in ProgC metrics. Bajrami, Diomande and Tavernier highest at passing the ball forward. Bajrami, Cerny and Jefte highest at carrying the ball.

Lyall Cameron has contributed two goals and an assist.

They get a place on the B list as they are home-grown, so they can play.

I moved your prediction to the correct thread, @BEARGER.

We need to find a way to get out of that Cortes transfer...

Rangers vs Queen's Park

I would like to see a Spurs-Newcastle final.
